In Windows 7 and Windows 8.1, Microsoft gives you the ability to control when or even if you want to download and install updates. But that seems to be changing with Windows 10, at least with the Home edition.
A new Windows 10 specifications page posted by Microsoft provides system requirements, notes and other facts about the upcoming new operating system software. And one section in particular reveals a change to the way Microsoft will let you handle updates.
"Windows 10 Home users will have updates from Windows Update automatically available," the Descriptions page explains. "Windows 10 Pro and Windows 10 Enterprise users will have the ability to defer updates."

Microsoft on Monday announced that it will begin offering its newest software to power PCs and tablets as a free upgrade on July 29. Users running Windows 7 or 8.1 with the latest updates can reserve the upgrade, which is available for one year. (You can check out CNET's guide for more details.)
For everyone else, a copy of Windows 10 Home will run $119, while Windows 10 Pro will cost $199. For those who wish to upgrade from the Home edition to the Pro edition, a Windows 10 Pro Pack will cost $99.
Correct...I think it's saying that Users running Windows 7 or 8.1 with the latest updates can reserve the upgrade, which is available for one year. and this is free.
I would have Windows 10 Home with automatic updates.
Yes, I'll do it.Lucky you! Would you do it?
I wanted to downgrade to it from WinMe but they did not let me...I was never going to upgrade past Win98se
Fair wish, Megabyte, but it won't happen unless you buy a brand new Windows 10 in a shop.I'd prefer to have it on cd/dvd, in my hand
All bought and paid for, I should add!
Ditto!I never use Media Center anyways.

All my puters are now waiting for W10.
Those of you who expect to get Windows 10 at the end of this month may be disappointed.
At the start of June, Microsoft said Windows 10 would officially launch on July 29. But as it turns out, that doesn't mean everyone will get the new operating system on that date.
The first to get the high-stakes update to the company's marquee software will be those who have been helping Microsoft get the kinks out of Windows 10, working through the Windows Insider program that went into effect last October.
